  The Principal Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2012
 
 
The Principal Sauvignon Blanc 2012.gif
  A Brand New vintage - The aromas from this wine are amazing and seriously intense. A couple of swirls and it is musk & passionfruit that is at the forefront. The tropical notes are out in force, with delicate rockmelon and honeydew mixing things up a bit. There is faint asparagus here as well as gooseberry. You can smell the minerality which seems to mingle with honeysuckle. Quite a fascinating bouquet.

On the palate the passionfruit is there, mixed in with luscious fruit and crisp acidity can all be accredited to that one flavour, but as that starts to settle you get a real snapshot of what this wine is about. And that is asparagus and gooseberry. They appear under the radar at first, then they start rolling in from the sides. NZ Sav Blanc is starting to increase in price dramatically due to demand increasing globally. The first glass i poured of this wine I blended earlier last year shows its youth with a very pale straw colour and white gold flowing around the edges.
